ISS Organic Farm

​

An organic garden can help children learn about the environment and the food that they eat. Gardening encourages children to spend time outside and be more physically active, and growing food and caring for animals as a group helps children to bond socially and teaches strong co-operative skills.

​

Our garden provides many different forms of engagement for children, including designing, planting, and maintenance; harvesting, preparing, and sharing food; learning about science and nutrition; and creating art and stories inspired by nature.

​

We believe that gardening offers children some of the best hands-on experience they can get, and the lessons they will learn can truly impact their lives.
